Agreed. Both have points. One subtly started to slip in the required data.

I’ve been involved a little bit in fairly large earthmoving projects. I know what one is trying to say about the price per acre.


But you are not figuring squat unless you calculate volume. Leaving depth out of the equation makes it impossible to calculate the amount of material to be moved. Therefore you can’t calculate Time, Man Hours, Equipment , etc.

TL/DR. You got to have the numbers to give an accurate cost of services. There is no other way.

I’m tired. I’m going to take a boat ride. Want to look at the marsh before it washes away, as it will. I’ve said this was going to happen since 1970 or so.
